Take a walk with an Akita Dog (Health Walking)

Share

Akita Dogs are known for the representative faithful dog Hachiko, and are a breed that is loved not only in Japan but also across the world. With their characteristic ears that perkily stand up, their airy, fluffy coats, and their curly round tails, they are adorable dogs that make you feel healed simply by looking at them.
It is possible to take a leisurely stroll through an area abundant with nature alongside such a dog.
The dog who will accompany you on your walk is the Akita Dog, Masa. With a personality that is friendly to people, Masa will befriend you quickly.
You can enjoy such activities as petting Masa's fluffy coat, taking pictures together, and so on. It will surely become a memory of a wonderful trip that you won't ever forget.
